The stand for tiny desks and big ideas!
BookArc is the little MacBook stand that makes room for a big monitor. How? It holds MacBook vertically and off of your desk. Set your MacBook atop BookArc, plug in your favorite external monitor, keyboard & mouse. Now you have taken a compact laptop and turned it into a comfortable desktop setup for your home or office. Things like photo editing, spreadsheets and other projects are easier to see on a bright 24-inch (or bigger) screen. When it's time to go mobile or head out for a meeting, unplug your desktop connections and the BookArc Cable Catch will keep them in place for you.
Can my MacBook run while the screen is closed?
Yes, it's a feature called Closed-Display Mode and great news, all MacBooks have it.
Does BookArc fit my MacBook?
BookArc includes inserts to fit the 2020 MacBook Air and MacBook Pros. It can even be upgraded to hold future MacBooks.
I already have a BookArc. How can I get the newest inserts?
You can purchase inserts for the newest MacBooks to update your existing BookArc.
Can your MacBook become a massive desktop workstation? Yes indeed.
Did you know your MacBook was designed to run a full desktop setup? To turn your focus to a single massive screen like Apple's XDR Pro Display, you can utilize a little-known feature called Closed-Display Mode. Enjoy a bright 32-inch display for super-sized photo editing, gain a dedicated number keypad using Apple's Extended keyboard and reclaim vital desk real estate with your MacBook upright and tucked out of the way in BookArc.
With BookArc, even tiny desks fit a big monitor.
Just look at how effectively BookArc maximizes desk space! Now you can park a big display on the smallest of desks working from home or the office. Resting upright on BookArc, your MacBook can even be tucked behind your monitor, increasing your focus while freeing up even more desk space.
Create a comfortable desktop setup.
It's hard to beat the portability of a MacBook on an airplane, but you don't sit in an airplane seat at home. Why wouldn't you sit in front of a full-size keyboard, mouse and external monitor when you can? BookArc creates room for comfy desktop setups whether you're in the corner of a small apartment, in your temporary work from home office or atop a small IKEA desk. With BookArc, even a wall shelf becomes a potential desktop!
Fits your MacBook today, and tomorrow.
Fits your MacBook today, and tomorrow. One amazing feature of BookArc is that it's designed to hold the MacBook you own now and the MacBook you buy tomorrow. How's that possible? The silicone inserts that cushion and grip MacBook are easy to replace and update.
BookArc includes three different inserts to hold all current MacBooks. As Apple introduces new MacBooks, we'll make new inserts to ensure BookArc stands the test of time. Already have a BookArc and looking for the newest inserts?
Get to know Apple's Closed-Display Mode.
How does a MacBook work when it's closed? It's called Closed-Display Mode and this long-time feature on MacBooks was the inspiration for BookArc. Switching to Closed-Display Mode is super easy. But don't take our word for it, here are Apple's Closed-Display Mode instructions.
If you already use an external monitor as a dual-screen setup with your MacBook, BookArc gives you the option to switch to one display so you can laser focus on a single giant screen and gain back a ton of desk space.
The Origins of BookArc
Fun fact - BookArc was actually the very first product Twelve South introduced when the company launched in 2009 (a hundred years ago in tech "tech years"). Watch the video to see how it all came together.
